What I Can Teach You

ELECTRIC GUITAR

Acoustic, Electric, or Bass Guitar

I’ve played acoustic, electric, and bass guitar in a range of bands and live performances, so can teach whatever you want to learn.

HEADPHONES

The Music You Love

If you want to master the guitar, you need to enjoy it, so I’ll tailor your lessons around playing the songs, artists, and genres you love listening to.

EQUALIZER

Skills and Techniques

From your A chords to your artificial harmonics, I’ll guide you through all the techniques you need to become a talented and versatile player.

To Ace Grade Exams​

I can prepare you for Rockschool, RGT, Trinity, or ABRSM grade exams. Grades aren’t essential, but they’re motivating and can even offer UCAS points.

MICROPHONE

Songwriting and Recording

I’ve been writing songs for years and studied recording and production at university, so can show you how to turn your musical ideas into finished tracks.

AUDIO JACK

Everything in Between

Great guitarists do more than just play – they understand music. I’ll teach you theory, effective practice techniques, performing with others, and more.

Why Learn With Me?

The internet is overflowing with resources for learning guitar, but none of it beats the personal guidance of a dedicated teacher.

I’ll design a curriculum around your specific goals, whether you want to perfect a challenging solo, write your own music, join a band, get your Grade 8 certificate, or strum your favourite songs around the campfire.

Even if you don’t have a goal in mind – you just know you want to play the guitar – I’ll direct your practice to ensure you keep learning at a strong pace, become a well-rounded player, fill any gaps in your knowledge, and keep having fun with the instrument.

Guitar has been a hugely rewarding part of my life, and I’m passionate about helping other people discover it. I pride myself on being an approachable, non-judgemental, and accepting teacher when doing so.

I take teaching seriously, which is why I have Public Liability insurance, an Independent Society of Musicians membership, and an enhanced DBS certificate that I keep valid with the DBS Update Service.

I teach guitar from a dedicated space in my home in Langport. If you’re in Langport, Huish Episcopi, Curry Rivel, Somerton, or nearby in Somerset, book your first lesson today – it’s free!
